Sorry but Rick cited 5-10HR and 10-15 RBI spikes as questionable. So I went to find an example of a famous player from the so called pre-PED era. Wasn't that hard, these output swings are common. My point is simple, this ped witch hunt is ridiculous, and you guys need to step back and be more rational. And I said "recency bias".... If your unfamiliar with that phrase it speaks to how you guys an misinterpreting data.
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...steroids-incentive-contract-marlins/83700248/ after listening and reading the ridicule, Gordon’s confidant made the call to USA TODAY Sports. “Why wouldn’t he do it?’’ said the friend, who requested anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the topic. “Think about it, why wouldn’t Dee take that chance? Why wouldn’t anyone? “So he got caught. So what? It was better than spending his career in the minors. His image may be shot, but he’s still has got his $50 million in the bank and can take care of his family for the rest of his life. “So really, when you think about it, it’s worth it.’’
Oh and in addition to recency bias, you are also committing confirmation bias too. Didn't want to make this into something larger, but I did realize using Munson as an example would expose the extreme emotional self-validation these biases possess. I've said my piece, I have no further points to make and won't revisit this thread.
...Jesus...again...that is not what I said...read again. ...and the "scientific proof" you are seeking can be found in the PEDs testing program. Show me scientific proof that any of the players who have tested positive for PEDs use were wrongly accused. ...sorry, you can't have it both ways.
...well alrighty then !...you can spin it all you want and you can choose to post or not, that's up to you...but there's nothing "emotional" about this.
